The human race is triumphant. After succesfuly developing space travel, they swarmed around the galaxy, colonising dozens of worlds. In doing so, they found numerous signs of alien civilisations: odd bits of technology, ruined desert cities of gold filagree and glowing blue light, abandoned scapyards... but no life. But soon enough, following the trail across the galaxy, they found them: the Enkari. Highly advanced lifeforms, they were all but extinct when the humans found them, claimed by a deadly disease. They bequeathed their knowledge to the humans, in the form of a datacrystal, hundreds of miles high. The humans brought the crystal to earth, where the scientists eagerly awaited a chance to experiment with the advanced technology. However, on the way to earth, a rogue military general, Amadeus Sungh, attacked the convoy with a small fleet, seizing the crystal. The rest of the humans counterattacked, and in the process, the vast crystal was lost, accidently blown apart by weapons fire. Only a few shards remained, and war broke out among the humans, fighting for the knowledge contained within...
Tuth Choss, Haron System
You wake up, and find yourself lying on a table. The room is dark, but you can make out banks of surgical equipment. You clutch your head, trying to remember something, anything before this room. Nothing, nothing apart from your name. You sit up, and climb off the bed. You hear a clanking noise, and stare in horror at your body. Half of it seems to have been encased in some sort of golden armor, with glowing blue cables snaking in and out of your skin. Twin golden gauntlets are affixed to your hands, and metallic armor covers your torso. Armor covers the lower half of your legs, and on your chest you see a green crystal affixed to the armor. Blue cables connect to this, and it glows eerily. Despite the armor, you can move freely. In fact, you feel light and flexible. Suddenly, the floor shakes and there is an enormous BOOM. You are knocked off your feet, but get back up again and rush to the door. It opens, and you stumble into a large hall, filled with people running away. You stare out of a window, and see tanks and soldiers charging towards the base...

Name: Deimos Praelium Gender: Male Class: Telepath Skills: Mind Read, Stun, Mind Shock Speed: 6 Strength: 6 Power: 7 Endurance: 6 Health: 50 XP: 11/15 Level: 2 Inventory: Scalpel, 2x Energy Blade.
One of them dies, but the other smashes the blaster to pieces with a laser blast. It clobbers you, and you're thrown into a wall. You power up one of the energy blades, but as you do so, the scientists finish their work and tranquilise her. They rush out of a side door, marked 'Shuttle Bay'. The robot lunhrs for you again but you dodge and decapitate it. You look out of the windows in the room, and see swarms of aircraft and tanks approaching the base. The last of the security force is blown apart. It is clear that the base is doomed. What do you do?
Name: Deimos Praelium Gender: Male Class: Telepath Skills: Mind Read, Stun, Mind Shock Speed: 6 Strength: 6 Power: 7 Endurance: 6 Health: 45 XP: 10/15 Level: 2 Inventory: Scalpel, 2x Energy Blade.
Whose RPG is this? You jam it in, but being made of energy it has no friction, effectively meaning it slides out immediately. You manage to swing yourself through a hatch into the cargo hold. You lose some XP and health.What's your next move, genius?
Name: Deimos Praelium Gender: Male Class: Telepath Skills: Mind Read, Stun, Mind Shock Speed: 6 Strength: 6 Power: 7 Endurance: 6 Health: 45 XP: 10/15 Level: 2 Inventory: Scalpel, 2x Energy Blade.
S'okay. Anyway, you search the boxes in the cargo hold, and three large metal spiders jump out from the shadows, extending claws. You can see human brains through transparent domes in their head. What do you do?
Name: Deimos Praelium Gender: Male Class: Telepath Skills: Mind Read, Stun, Mind Shock Speed: 6 Strength: 6 Power: 7 Endurance: 6 Health: 40 XP: 12/15 Level: 2 Inventory: Scalpel, 2x Energy Blade.
You kill one, but the others zap you with an electric charge. In the pain, you accidently send out a telepathic wave, and the baron spiders chitter in pain. What do you do?
Yah, it'll make things simpler. I appreciate that you can't be on 24/7.
One of the spiders is burnt alive, and Moat fries the other. Your choice is the same as Moats.
Name: Deimos Praelium Gender: Male Class: Telepath Skills: Mind Read, Stun, Mind Shock Speed: 6 Strength: 6 Power: 7 Endurance: 6 Health: 40 XP: 14/15 Level: 2 Inventory: Scalpel, 1x Energy Blade
You shock it's brain, and you fry it with one energy blade, throwing the other to Aquillane. You make your way through the shuttle, and find your self confronted with three robotic guards. What ist thy action?
Name: Deimos Praelium Gender: Male Class: Telepath Skills: Mind Read, Stun, Mind Shock Speed: 6 Strength: 6 Power: 7 Endurance: 6 Health: 30/60 XP: 1/20 Level: 3 Inventory: Scalpel, 1x Energy Blade, Laser Cannon (1 ammo)
Ye cannae use telepathy on a non living being. You slice at it, and you remove it's arm. It raises a laser, and blasts you off your feet. You slam into awall, and Aquillane burns the head off one, then slices at the armless ones chest. Aquillane is then taken down by the third robot's laser. However, a volley of cannon fire slams into the shuttle's shields, and the robots fall over. One of them drops a laser cannon, and you grab it, blowing the head off one and slicing the head off the other. You and Aquillane hurry down the corridor, and soon come to the cockpit. The pilots sit there, dodging fire from the enemy weapons. What do you do?
!!!Level Up!!!
Add five points to your skills.
New Skill options:
Mind Control: Control a target for (10x Power) Seconds. Can be upgraded.
Datalink: Allows your powers to work on robots
Extreme Mind Shock: Can either kill or cause heavy pain to (Endurance) targets. (Replaces Mind Shock)
Cloak of Shadows: Render yourself invisible to 1 (upgradable) person.
I buffed Mind Control, and I thought you might enjoy Datalink. Also, the upgraded form of Extreme Mind Shock is probably the most powerful offensive skill in your armoury, so you might want to invest in that.
